Now that looks like the life Bogy! Nice work! Nice place! Congrats on a good life!

I have to take some time off when the temperatures drop some more. Get my wood moved in under the porch and get out there and cut 30 cord for next year. Then try to get it split and stacked before the snow flies. Oh, man, that sounds like a lot work. Maybe I will cut 20 cord and come up with the money to buy the other 10. Ya. That's the ticket. Or should it be 10 and 20?

Nice haul. We put in some smaller Birch rounds in the off season as decoration inside the stove

That is right. 30 face cord in a full year. So 10 full cord. I heat a roughly 4200 sq.ft. house, 900 sq.ft. garage to 45all winter , and all our domestic hot water for showers, laundry, dishwasher, etc. The boiler does a great job. And I do not think that is a lot of wood for all that load. I do have a couple of areas that I need to improve the insulation on, but that will come with time.

Looks like you are making good use of your time Dave. Any idea how much longer you might expect to be able to cut and haul wood?

I keep banking on cutting wood most of the winter. Some years I can't because of too much snow but other years, like last year, I can cut all winter. However, my body usually gives out before the weather stops me. But then, it is not only snowfall which will keep me out of the woods as I really do not enjoy freezing my feet and hands so when it gets really cold and/or windy, I stay by the wood stove.
